Tips:
- Use a variety of potatoes: Different types of potatoes have different textures and flavors, so using a mix will give your salad a more complex flavor and texture.
- Cook the potatoes just until they are tender: Overcooked potatoes will be mushy and not hold their shape in the salad.
- Let the potatoes cool completely before adding them to the salad: This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
- Use a light and flavorful dressing: A heavy or oily dressing will overpower the flavors of the potatoes and vegetables.
- Add the dressing just before serving: This will help prevent the salad from becoming soggy.
- Garnish the salad with fresh herbs or chopped nuts: This will add a nice pop of color and flavor.
